Magical

It’s a hot day but the humidity is tolerable and there is a little breeze
I decided to get my kindle and come out onto the lanai where sleeping cars litter the place but I got a chair after Minette went inside to cool off, followed by Old Man Merlin.
I returned to my murder mystery.
I kept hearing little chirpy squeaky sounds that I ignored then looked up to see what was going on.

The last thing I expected to see.

A Hummingbird Fight
Well-not exactly a “fight” but a little air warfare going on.
I have seen all kinds of birds fighting or bickering over something but this was a First.

The tiny birds
The tiny beautiful birds.
Darting here and there so fast.
A duel between magical beings in plain sight of ordinary humans

It was a gift.

  1. They are fascinating creatures, hummingbirds. Can’t get enough of them.

  2. I adore those little birds. I've always had 2-3 fighting over my feeder each year - but this year they have not returned :( I can't imagine why not, and I've been very sad about it :(
